How to slide the loose, unclamped tailpipe from the 240GL Wagon, and to disconnect the muffler from its mount. 200 1986


How to remove the muffler from its hangers is not entirely obvious to me


The best way is not to pry the rubber pieces but to unscrew the pins from the body.

Here's the pin (one of two) by itself.





See the facets? Support the axle pipe per Art's suggestion. Then find the correct size open end wrench and remove the pin on the right side. You then should be able to drop the muffler enough to remove the hanger and then just pull it off the of the other pin.
